You can’t really see anything in this tour. Most beautiful spots are 10-15. Spent 45 min drive to visit a gift shop. If you really want to see the island this not a good option

This was a very enjoyable tour. This long guided tour takes us through a lot of locations that we have never knew about or had an inkling to check out on our own. We never spent too much time in any one location but what this tour does is gives us an opportunity to see what the island has to offer so that on our return we know which spots we want to spend more time in as we visit them in our own. This tour is basically a photo op tour. We could easily spend 2-3 hours at each stop but that would either make the tour 16 hours long or the other option is to see see less locations. I didn’t mind the short 10-20 minute photo stops. Our favorite stops were Huanama Bay and Nuuanu Pali Lookout. Our tour guide Johnny was fantastic. He was super cool, funny, knowledgeable, personable, had great trivia for us about each location (even personal stories which I thought were great), and had great recommendations for photos or to just experience some of the local attractions and flavors. It’s too bad the rest of the people on the tour were a low energy and boring group of people and were not the type to engage with Johnny or his antics. I thought he was very entertaining. I probably would not do this tour again simply because Johnny showed us some really cool spots that we want to visit on our own with a rental car and spend more substantial time in. I do recommend this for first timers on Oahu. Yeah! JOHNNY!

Let me start off by saying that this is my FIRST EVER review. First off, the tour began 30 mins late. We were patient. The tour guide was rude while collecting our names. He asked everyone where they were from and made a comment about not speaking Spanish. Most of our family being from New Mexico. After the tour began, guide explained about the island. At the second stop, a lady with a puppy in Hawaiian gear approached my daughter and son-in-law as we were boarding the bus and delayed them by 30 seconds. Next stop, macadamia farm, son-in-law was in line to pay and was back to the bus 1 min late. Guide made sure the family knew he had a second strike against him. He asked, “Did he get deported?” To which, we were all a bit dumbfounded. Again, we let it go. The next stop was unscheduled but he stopped us anyway. He did not give us a time to board but told us it was a quick stop. Son-in-law ordered a shaved ice. The guide started making a big deal about running late, guide threatened to leave my daughter and son-in- law behind, said that my son-in-law was making the tour about himself and began asking the other passengers if they were okay losing time at the beach. The other family members contemplated getting off the bus along with the other 2, whom were completely unaware that our tour guide was threatening to leave them behind. There was an exchanging of words with our group and the guide. From that moment on, our time on the tour was even less enjoyable. From this point on, our family got off and on the bus together. The discomfort was palpable. During the tour, the guide made some very disrespectful and disturbing comments towards a mom who was on the tour with her two children and mom. He continually made comments about a child who was having a rough day and was crying. That family also almost left the tour at one point. The guide made many rude comments about tourists. Save your money. There is no need to feel rushed, mistreated and disrespected on your vacation.

Simon was a fantastic tour guide. So much knowledge. Comfortable coach and it was so beneficial to have his recommendations for food choices etc.

The scenery and pineapple ice cream was very good. The driver was excellent. The time was long and we were able to take a small nap.
